As of this writing (7:45 AM) the Joe Rogan Experience podcast with Donald Trump which dropped late last night has 8.7 million views.
This is extraordinary when you consider the following:
- The podcast runs almost 3 hours (2:58:50)
- Trump has been around for a very long time
- It’s been less than a half a day and overnight for a lot of those in the east
What are people who are watching the podcast seeing? A conversation lasting three hours. A rational conversation on all kinds of topics, from the great flip flops of the celebs who embraced Trump for decades up until the point where he was considerer a threat to the power of the left to boxing and MMF. The type of conversation that regular people might have. The type of conversation that gives you a pretty good picture of who a person actually is.
In other words the type of conversation that the media:
- Doesn’t dare have about Donald Trump because it would destroy their false negative narrative
- Doesn’t dare have with Kamala Harris because it would destroy their false positive narrative
Ironically after three hours with Rogan Trump went off to a rally that night, so much for the “tired” and “ducking” business.
Here is the whole thing:
There was some talk on COVID and the vaccines which is actually a weakness for Trump (but not in contrast to Harris/Biden) and the conversation on some Trump supporters being nervous about RFK’s role in the administration was interesting and groundbreaking. There was some real news broken there which is why it’s worth your time.
There was an early report that youtube was censoring the link but Rogan himself noted that there had been a tech issue that was resolved by delisting and then relisting the podcast. Frankly as a person who is still banned by Youtube it’s nice to see them not censoring this.
Rogan expressed an interest in having Harris on but apparently the sticking point was Harris teams’ insistence on making some topics off limits while Trump agreed to no limits on topics.
Of course if the crash and burn continues the campaign may change it’s mind figuring like a Hockey team pulling their goalie when down 5 with 2 minutes to go. What have you got to lose?
But Trump wasn’t the only one who was on a major podcast. JD Vance appeared on the Theo Von podcast for two hours
What is really interesting has been the feedback from so many of the over 2 million who watched the podcast who have been told by the media that Vance was “odd” or “weird” or “strange” and after seeing him for two hours found him the most normal guy in the room.
Read the comments to the podcast it’s shattering to the narrative that people have put out there on Vance and an excellent reminder that the BS the media sold during the time they hid Joe Biden cognitive decline is not the only lie that they have been pushing.
This is the type of thing people watch on their own, the media can’t hide or counter it and it’s the type of things that changes votes.
These two podcasts are the ultimate expression of bypassing the narrative and going directly to the people letting voters who wish to see people as they actually are. This is the ultimate expression of the 1st amendment.
The media will try to avoid these podcasts. I can hear them now:
This is an emergency. Media must be believed and obeyed! No one on the country believes in Trump/Vance Podcasts! There is no such thing as Trump/Vance Podcasts! Trump/Vance Podcast do not exist! THERE ARE NO PODCASTS!
If you want to know why the left demands censorship these two podcasts are it.
Checkmate.
